Elon Musk: "If you punish people too much for failure, then they will respond accordingly, and the innovation you will get will be very incrementalist Nobody's gonna try anything bold for fear of getting fired or being punished in some way. So risk-reward must be balanced and favor taking bold moves, otherwise it will not happen"

Several hundred U.S. Special Operations Forces, including Army Rangers and Navy SEALs, have arrived in the Middle East, joining thousands of Marines and Army Paratroopers from the 82nd Airborne Division in a deployment meant to give President Trump additional options to expand the current monthlong Iran War, with planning underway for possible ground operations, two U.S. military officials have told The New York Times.

If you can’t call out antisemitism clearly, you are part of the problem. Canada is drifting. And now the world is noticing. “More synagogues… desecrated, burned, shot at… than in any other country.” “We’re witnessing a polite pogrom.” Read that again. That should stop us in our tracks. theatlantic.com/internationa…

Chances that normal shipping traffic returns to the Strait of Hormuz by the end of April has plummeted in the last 48 hours, down over 30% currently sitting at around 44%, following a number of strikes by Iran on cargo vessels and oil tankers near the Strait, as well as an attack overnight on two tankers off the coast of Iraq.

This was really fun. Thanks for having me @JacobShap
A different kind of episode…one of my best friends landed in Tel Aviv less than 24 hours before the rockets started falling. Here’s the story of how he escaped….and what snacks are like on emergency DHS evacuation flights. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

Our newly launched @joinkudos AI agent called T-Mobile and cut my bill by $840/year (54%). It handled the hold music, the bots, and the negotiation. Companies have call center AI agents. Now consumers have theirs too. Here’s the clip of the call.

Hey @bcherny, I'm super excited about Claude Cowork and I love to have multi-user collab to work on projects with my wife or team at work. Any plans to add shared access soon? Would be a game-changer!

@harleyf Hi from Grillers Pride, the two-generation kosher DTC butcher where I serve as my dad’s unpaid CTO. 😅 Wrote an 'open' PRD for native net-weight checkout: save the card at checkout, charge once after we weigh. Unlocks every butcher & fishmonger still on custom carts.

Imagine an iPhone that runs your life. No notifications. No distractions. Just an AI partner handling everything, speaking only when you ask or when it’s critical. 🧵

No reacting to pings. The AI leads. You live. It doesn’t filter notifications. It eliminates them. Your phone becomes a partner freeing you to focus on what matters.

Freedom from digital noise. Clarity in communication. A device that empowers you to live better. This isn’t a smarter phone. It’s a life redefined.

This is the longest AI video I’ve seen with a truly consistent character. I can’t overstate what a huge unlock this is for storytelling. These are images from a FLUX LoRA, animated with @runwayml (creator is u/Unwitting_Observer)
